If I put the library on local storage then I wouldn't be able to access from my tablet and phone whenever the PC was switched off......unless I am missing something!
Perhaps you should look at the number of messages in the calibre forum about people who have stored their live libraries on various cloud storage ranging from a local NAS to Dropbox/OneDrive/etc. The common theme is "I've been doing this for years and now my library is corrupt/I've lost most of my books/etc. Help!"

Keep your library local and sync it when calibre is closed to Dropbox/OneDrive/whatever. You can use a sync utility that allows for incremental syncs so only the changed bits get synced which is my personal preference.
